A streamlined version of Jerry Garcia's famed "Tiger" Guitar. Choice of Figured Maple with a Mahogany core for a lighter, more shoulder friendly instrument. Or classic Cocobolo paired with a maple core, just like the original.
Like the original Tiger, the Mother of Pearl inlays throughout the guitar are meticulously hand cut, as they are in all DeLuis Guitars. I mention this repeatedly throughout my catalog because using CNC instead of hand cutting has become an industry norm, and I always want to honor Old World craftsmanship by utilizing skill, patience and practice in regards to the art of inlay.
Your choice of color or natural finishing as well as your choice of inlay package.
